MARCH OOC INTRO

[recollecters]

Welcome to Recollé's March OOC Intro post! Please use this post to write up a comment introducing yourself to your gamemates and telling us a little about your character! You may wish to keep this brief, link their application, or provide a few short blurbs about your character. Furthermore, please use this opportunity to tag around to each other, list your contact information if you'd like, etc.

As noted in your acceptance notification, we also ask that new characters not do inbox threads involving the Retrospec app or world changes or the like until they are officially granted access to the rest of the comms (TDM threads of course can be continued). Characters will still be at NPC status without the ability to recognize any oddities until the Retrospec post is up at 9PM EST on the 1st!

Thanks for joining us, and we're excited to see you all here!

kicks down the door to break this post open

hello! i am ichi and i'm already in the game with souji seta/narukami (tarotcards) and makoto naegi (optimistical) but i'm bringing in my third character. this is raidou kuzunoha xiv from devil summoner! the canon is also known as shin megami tensei: devil summoner: raidou kuzunoha vs the souless army/king abaddon/other long ass names. it looks like a goddamn mess on the title screen and covers

anyway, a few quick deets on raidou in this au: his name is jouhei and he's a 23yo veterinary school student who currently works at that one vet clinic with the dog sanctuary attached. he's a country bumpkin who refuses to change his phone (he got it for 50cents at goodwill and he loves it) and also refuses to take off his hat at any given circumstances. he somehow has a phone plan in which incoming texting isn't free so if someone texts him, he will find them and dropkick them into the ground and then remove his number from their phone. he's also super quiet and would rather stare and hope that the other person has some mind-reading powers rather than talk. oh and his cousin is also a shitty little brat named nanashi, i guess that's important or something ٩(๑`^´๑)۶

more info about him can be found on either his au workshop comment or his app and his tdm thread is here! i'll still be tagging his tdm top-level until the end of the month if people want to thread and i am open to more cr if anyone wants to plan things! you can contact me through plurk at northpaws or pms. i look forward to playing with you all!

[thesettingsun]

when is he going to remember the mara boss fight

[reaquila]

i am here to be drop kicked!

this will be nanashi's expression for the remainder of the week

goodbye jouhei

[sanephiroth]

aaa hi. I would love for these two to be friends.

[livingimpaired]

man! i loved devil summoner so much!!

hi, hi. i'm ruri. i play kirei kotomine/kei shigaraki. i don't believe any of our characters have had a chance to meet in-game, but anyway, i wanted to say that ahh! i loved devil summoner so much.

i was trying to replay the second game, but when back luck rose, i kept getting riders and would die.. my poor level nothing-ass. i never had what they wanted to tell them to fuck off! (laughs) but man, that was a fun game. and could actually run! i remember being so impressed with actually being able to run instead of the slow run he had in the first game!

[deathboss]

TIME TO UPDATE HIS PHOOOOOOONE!!!

[fiddlestick]

I'm so glad your nokia phone dream is finally going to be reality.

[huxceptional]

i'm sorry for bringing this asshole back

HI this is Sara, the player of Kiyotaka Ishimaru steadycourse, and I am bringing in General Armitage Hux from that one obscure movie series called star wars. As mentioned earlier, I had him in the game several months ago, but I wanted to try playing him again in recolle!

He's from a different AU this time, so he won't remember anything. He's going to be a 34 year old professor at Recolle University, teaching various levels of statistics while researching the effectiveness of a strong military (by using statistics and blah blah). He's pretty much an asshole that makes his courses harder than they should be and spends all of his energy into the university because he has no outside life, other than drinking at bars. But there's some improvements! Like... he hasn't destroyed five planets and there's no hair gel. Those two things are clearly comparable.

There's more information at his application. i'm definitely open to more people knowing him, either as a co-worker, student, or fellow bar person. I can be contacted through currykirby as well! I look forward to playing Hux here again.

[lostapprentice]

get a hobby you loser, says the man who punches other people for fun

[meowchanics]

Hello friends, I'm Skarme and I'm new to the game this app round! (Although I did hit the AU workshop with a Digimon Cyber Sleuth character once before... maybe someday.) This month I am bringing in one (1) Sigma from Zero Escape, that one series of niche pseudoscience-loving VNs that did Dangan Ronpa before it was cool! His AU is laid out in his app, but as a summary: 45-year-old college lecturer and genetics researcher, AU real name Sigmund Klim because who the fuck names their kid "Sigma" (hint: he would), Hip With The Kids on social media, lowkey terrible father and utter manbaby.

He's a new character to me, so I'm excited to get him out there and doing things /o/ I'll continue to hit TDM things when able for as long as people are interested, but in the meantime feel free to hit me up at blitzente if you want to plot stuff or just hang out! I'm on GMT so I don't always respond fast, but I love to bounce ideas off of peeps and also to make puns about cats

Hope to see y'all around soon!

[physix]

YOU ACTUALLY UPLOADED THAT ICON

[physix]

Hello Recolle! I'm nami player of Nanashi reaquila from SMTIV.

I'm here with second character I used to play at rec exactly a year ago!

Akane Kurashiki from the Zero Escape series. The canon is basically about 9 people being trapped in an unknown location . They have to Seek a way out! Sometimes there are memes and talk about time travel. Akane's motives are.....complex. What do you want me to say? I can't give away too much without being spoilery so I'll leave it at that.

In Rec, she's just a smart girl who studies med science. She's perfectly normal and not weird at all. Also, she has pet bunnies so please be nice to them.

You can contact me at plurk presages! I'm looking forward to playing with everyone!

[sanephiroth]

I am just so excited for Zero Escape people here. Hello! I am new. My name is Shiro and I have this not-quite-villain from FF7 here.

[littlestbaskerville]

Hello! Jensen here, strayknight Ritsu Sakuma's player~

I'm bringing in my second character who is very fond and dear to my heart, since she is from one of my favorite series! This is Lily Baskerville from Pandora Hearts! She is from a series that is based on Alice in Wonderland in a lot of ways but also involves creatures from another world named after characters from the book series. People that can survive gunshots and more! The series is beautifully written and complex to the point that I re-read it and find new details all the time or cry about a lot of things.

In canon she is both innocent and crazy but more reckless to the point of wanting to kill a man that killed her friend. Or letting her Chain Bandersnatch, a dog like creature from the abyss, play with people as in letting him tear them apart!

Lily here in Recolle is named Lily Lamb and has a older sister notyourutopian Eleanor Lamb! She also has a giant doberman named Tatcher. Only twelve here she is going to be in grade school and is half British and half French! She's bratty and loves to argue so she should be fun with people. Lily is also a little naive and believes a lot of what she's told.

If you want more information about her feel free to check out her App! She also has a TDM located here!

I'm excited for all CR especially anyone she can chat with or be "adopted" by!

Also feel free to add me on blazeburn or discord at Ritsubae#0125

[cardcaptured]

AAAAAA I'M EXCITED TO HAVE LILY HERE!!! She was so cute to bounce off of the TDM and I'm really looking forward to more CR with her and Xiaolang!! (I'm just sorry that one of the few people close to her age here is one who refuses to act his age, cries)

... although oh my god, I want someone to dupe them both at some point, because Xiaolang's... also really naive and gullible despite how he acts and it'd be hilarious

[pomaded]

yo what's up, dudes, I'm Rachel (or rae either is fine i don't mind tbh) and I'm new! This round I'm bringing in Josuke Higashikata from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure aka that series about buff fashionable dudes looking fabulous and punching either other with sparkles and/or ghosts y'all know the one

Josuke looks like he's straight out of an 80s delinquent manga but he's actually a good kid and all about Prince, money, beating up serial killers with his punch ghost Stand Crazy Diamond and his hair. like he's really into his hair as in talk shit about it and all hell breaks loose into it

In Recollé, he's a 17 year old real delinquent down with a case of teenage apathy who moved here from Japan with his mom and never really settled in. Like in canon, he's still a little bit of a shit and likes coming up with money making schemes to fund his expensive tastes- obviously a teenage boy needs some valentino in his wardrobe???- so hopefully there will be plenty of chances for that to backfire horribly on him in game.

neway I'm really bad at intros but there's more info about Josuke and his AU on his journal and I'm super excited to be here! My plurk is crescendoll so feel free to add me!

[cardcaptured]

RACHEL!!!!!!!! Oh my god I am so hyped that I finally get to be in a game with you and your excellent Josuke LET ME THROW MY SMALL CRABBY MIDDLE SCHOOLER IN YOUR DIRECTION

although I see 'money making schemes' and just thought of Josuke possibly duping Xiaolang out of some cash because of some bullshit story he came up with on the spot.... CRIES....

[sanephiroth]

Hello, all. My name is Shiro. I am bringing Sephiroth of FF7 fame here. He'll mostly be of his Crisis Core personality, so tall, silver, and handsome. Sometimes snark and self-centered while still mostly nice and reasonable and perfectly sane.

His AU self is named Zephyr Jin. He's a full time model with a kendo dojo that's his passion project. It welcomes students of all ages. Also still has a mom complex. It'll be the sanest Sephiroth's ever been. It'll be great. His app is here. The AU got revamped in revisions so scroll down for that.

I'm available on plurk at coulsonlives

It's nice to meet you all!

[thesettingsun]

zephyr: I hate my parents
zephyr, after getting memories back: actually comparatively they're not that bad

Welcome to Recolle, Shiro! Good to have you with us. I'm Mini, I play Shuji Tsushima from Bungou to Alchemist and Shinji Matou from Fate/Extra. I look forward to tagging you!

[dirtdevil]

HELLO. i'm alison and i am new to the game! this character is very much not new, and is in fact quite old and busted. i will be bringing you levi from attack on titan! i'm sorry in advance.

in canon, he's a tiny, rude, neurotic asshole who's super good at killing stuff. in this AU, he's a tiny, rude, neurotic asshole who's really good at killing stuff in video games. he's actually a pretty okay dude underneath it all, he just had a phenomenally shitty life (much less so here, fortunately) and he happens to deal with it by being kind of a dick. he's also a high-key clean freak. overall, just super fun to hang out with in general. the life of the party.

(just kidding, he doesn't get invited to parties)

aaanyway, his app is here for the curious, and i am over at clickboom for plotting/friendship purposes! i'm excited to be here!!

[secare]

Welcome to the game, Mushy!! Enjoy your stay and etc etc etc.

Time for me to find a way to worm into your au.

[ingodswelove]

Hello, hello!

Tseil here to bring in another disaster child - Ashura from RG Veda (for the record, the uber-pretty one with the ponytail, not the original Ashura-ou, lol).

He still goes by Ashura, and his mother is Eastern Indian while his father is French. He's related to Fai on his father's side (they're cousins, unbeknownst to both of them. Fun times! Lulz). He's a flirt, but he's dating our resident Sephiroth! What do you get when you stick two Gods of Destruction into a relationship?. He loves the performing arts and will drag anyone he sees into his pace if he can help it (he's not the responsible one, can you tell?). Just uh... watch out for those Bodyguards/Servants that are always by his side. They're there for a reason, and may not trust you until you get Dear Mother's approval.

I gave him a rich and spoiled life, because he deserves one. Especially for all the Chaos that'll ruin his life later. Let him befriend you! He'll take you shopping and try to pull you into public performances!

If you want to read his entire app, you can do so over here. I also am always up for whoever wants to plot over at Tseil. I always accept friend requests, so if you want to be in my loop, don't be shy! I'm excited for all of it!

[sakeplz]

New future rich friend~!

[tailchasing]

Greetings from the far side, Recolle!

This is Reslari, who was here a while back with a character that I couldn't get in the vibe with and so I took a little break and now I am back with... this monkey!

That's right, this is Zidane Tribal from Final Fantasy IX. Here in Recolle his full name is Skylar Garland, but he wants everyone to call him Zeke, so that's his name in everything. Why Zeke? Because when he hits it big, he's going to change his pseudonym to Ezekiel Garland. He thinks it pops more.

He's a big theater and movie nerd, he plays video games, and otherwise just tears up the town like your typical 17 year old High School Senior. The rest of his app can be found Here!

You can hit me up at reslari and I love new friends.

[ingodswelove]

THEATRE NERD!! Come let Ashura drag you into things!!!

Hi, I'm Tseil. Welcome back to Recolle~ ^^

[seeker]

Helloo! I'm Robyn and I'm bringing (back) in Aloy from the PS4 game Horizon: Zero Dawn. In canon, Aloy is a hunter, and later seeker (and a scattering of other titles) in a post-post apocalyptic world (mainly Western/Northwestern US), where everything has been overrun by a new apex predator, incredibly advanced and animal-like machines. Aloy in this au is named Alison, and she's a 20 (soon to be 21) year old student at Recolle University, majoring in environmental science. She works for the National Fish and Wildlife services in Recolle's national park, and is also a genius, low-key: she programs robots/drones in her dad's garage for "fun."

Alison's pretty sarcastic and rather dry, but she's got a good heart! It just takes her a while to warm up. As she was here last year, she'll be retaining her memories but will be losing all her physical regains, so she'll be kind of salty about that. If you want to learn more about here, or kick off new cr, here's her app, au workshop and tdm thread! I'll be tagging the tdm until the retrospec post hits on the 1st, and I'm all for cr, new and old, so feel free to hit me up. I can be contacted via PM or godsibb, and I'm excited to be back!

[digthefuzz]

Welcome back to the game!

[informantic]

What's up, new friends and old! My name is Mads and I bring you Ango Sakaguchi from Bungou Stray Dogs, that weird anime where irl authors provide the names and ability themes for superpowered nerds. Ango is the nerdiest of those nerds by far despite also being a government spy, and that hasn't changed at all in the case of his AU - he's actually less cool as Heigo Miyake, smdh.

Heigo's a 26 year old accountant at some major office in the city (still need to lock down which one) and a secret author under the pen name - here's where the shady subterfuge comes in - Ango Sakaguchi. He's officious and easily annoyed and pretty Done with everything but has a slightly softer layer under that, beneath which there's a porcupine, and then his gooey center. I'm still working on his info page and a blurb about the content of his books, but my app is up and I'm still taking any and all established CR at his AU workshop.

I AM SO HYPE TO BE HERE and cannot wait to get started in the game proper! Please feel free to add me on plurk at ochitsubaki regardless of whether or not we've got stuff preplanned or going on rn, I just love new friends <33

[thesettingsun]

hi nerd

[gandora]

HI FRIENDS :D

Well new friends and old friends! My name is Kuma and I will be playing Yugi Mutou here! Naturally, he's as nerdy and tiny as you all remember him, but this time he's actually graduated from high school and still super sweet! As for the AU setting, Yugi is still pretty nerdy, but like his canon counterpart, he's wanting to make games instead of being a duelist. He is currently studying business and different languages and works part time at his grandfather's shop. However, Yugi volunteers as well, with youth groups and has a little bit of a bleeding heart for wayward kids, given he was bullied a LOT as a kid.

HERE is his application for more info! If anyone ever wants to contact me, please email me at kumabings@gmail.com or private plurk me at hopegoats!!! I work from home so I don't look at discord and such as often I'd like to!

[thesettingsun]

Old friend, it's Mini from FC o/ Welcome to Recolle!

Here I play Shuji Tsushima from Bungou to Alchemist and Shinji Matou from Fate/Extra, both of whom are giant nerds. Looking forward to throwing them at you!

[agrizzlysin]

Hey, all! It's Wind again, player of Kamui (foeyay). This time I'm here with a very different brand of failure: Fairy King Harlequin of The Seven Deadly Sins!

Canonly, Harlequin is a thousand year old fairy king who ruled over the Fairy King's Forest and protected it from greedy humans out to steal the heart of the forest: The Fountain of Youth. Until he totally flaked, got shanked off a cliff, and lost his memory for 500 years. You know, the usual.

In Recolle, he's known as Harlequin "Quin" Pine, a fourteen year old high school freshman whose hobbies include gaming, sewing, and letting everyone down before they start expecting anything from him. Because life just isn't perfect unless he's allowed to be as lazy as humanly possible at all times. He's embarrassing and cocky, but he's also loyal, intelligent, and makes for a great straight man. Also his family's loaded, and he doesn't feel an ounce of guilt throwing away his parents' hard earned money on a whim. So come be his friend! Or I guess you could be his friend for more noble reasons too. It's all good.

My plurk is shogunsensual. Hit me up there or PM me if you're interested in AU CR!

[cardcaptured]

YES!!!! I'M SO GLAD YOU APPED THIS NERD, I LOVED THREADING WITH HIM ON THE TDM

... also god, I hope Quin's prepared for Xiaolang being a bigger mess than usual next month, since he's finally confessing to Sakura on her birthday and that's.... going to be a Thing

[devoid]

Hi guys! This is Redd, player of Jaeger/Yeager (scythegun) and Rossiu (onemillion) bringing in my third character: Beruka from Fire Emblem: Fates! For the canon familiar, she's coming from the Revelation route of the story!

Beruka is a stone-cold assassin who believes she can't feel anything. She's extremely loyal to her boss and when she's not protecting her, she's out killing people for money. She doesn't usually say much and she doesn't understand the point of things like hobbies so she's uh. Kind of socially stunted and weird.

But not to worry, in Recollé she's actually much more well-adjusted! Brooke has emotions (even though she bottles them up) and she isn't all that socially awkward anymore! Sort of. She works at Darius's bar and is quite content with where her life is right now. If you want to read more you can check out her app!

Feel free to add me on plurk at pokerap! I'm definitely still open to setting up new CR, so hit me up if you think we can work something out!

[rhapsodist]

Hello!! Super late, but I'm here. My name is Amanda, you can find me at lineandcolor and I'm new, bring you another SODLIER from that one Final Fantasy, Genesis Rhapsodos! His AU Workshop can be found here if you'd like to plot anything or just hit me up on Plurk! His app is here for more details on his AU!

A short blurb! He's a 30 year old Australian bookstore owner (with a funky accent to boot because his father is Irish and his mother is Japanese and he also lived in Japan for a time), said bookstore also doubles as his home on the 2nd and 3rd floors and he's also known to repair books as well! He sells/serves tea and has open mic nights too, please come read your bad poetry or sing or whathaveyou. He's also got a weak constitution from being severely ill as a child, so he's not the most active of the former SOLDIER boys and speaking of SOLDIER boys, he's dating Andrew Hughes, they've been friends since forever. He's not a drama queen yet this time around and is the nerdiest bookworm around.

Also, he broke his arm last month (nothing major, a hairline fracture) so please come sign his cast. His mom and dad already doodled on it. He's kind of a dweeb now. Will never as cool as his gif

[sanephiroth]

Cloud Strife | Final Fantasy 7 Compilation

[quiet_storm]

Hello, everyone! I'm Gwen, almostclueless on plurk, and here's the spiky-haired blond guy! I would be delighted to run with any previous CR the character had from his previous incarnation, as well as meeting and getting to know lots of people he's never met before.

Here's his app if you're interested!

Cloud is a native of Alberta, Canada, and lives in Recolle with his hyper-social half-brother Prompto (who has an April Plot Post up), and is mostly just a laid-back goofball. He's 24 years old and has been here since August as part of his strategy of roaming the world to look for his purpose in life, which his Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering inexplicably did not provide for him. He works as a full-time grease monkey at an auto and motorcycle repair shop, then sometimes works on his own bike on his off hours.

What he really likes to do is geek out, running Dungeons & Dragons campaigns at his place (and is planning to start up a Bunkers & Badasses group if there's enough interest!). Another one of his hobbies is making fantasy and sci-fi art, particularly bejeweled metal figurines and fake daggers/swords. They're not quite professional quality, but he loves making custom pieces for other people.

Though he believes he's hopelessly inept at making friends, his quiet sincerity and non-judgmental nature make it really easy for him to get along with all manner of people, including oddballs and those with off-putting personalities. He's also a huge sucker for side quests wanting help everyone he comes across, and has a curious tendency to go on long and complicated errands for friends and strangers alike and think this is perfectly normal behavior.

He's also got a huge Big Brother streak and a hero complex, so if anyone needs to be rescued and/or adopted, Cloud will volunteer, even if he has no idea what he's getting into.

Thanks, and I look forward to meeting everyone's characters in game!

[mincingminuet]

Hello there! Welcome to the game.

I'm Ax, and I play Penelo (AU Penelope) here from a Final Fantasy 5 generations down the line. Also Yukiko Amagi from Persona 4 and Kara Zor El from DC comics.

Pen knew Cloud in passing previously, and so when he returns to the network she'll be pretty pleased to see him. Also to discover that he does geek stuff. She's a YouTuber about to graduate college and does all sorts of nerdy things. Also has an airship that he might want to have a look at, so that's definitely a thing.

[axeswing]

howdy folks! i'm ashe and a few of you may know me from waaaaay back when i played sousuke yamazaki, but i'm here to bring you a whole new character who is... nothing like sousuke. that may or may not be a good thing, tbh. opinions may vary.

this is vane from the mobage granblue fantasy! a knight who started off as your regular ol' foot soldier who climbed his way up to vice-captain status; super sweet and friendly guy who has the cutest reaction to getting valentine's day chocolates in the game. turn your headphones down cause he's... loud...

anyway! he's still loud but here he'll be known as christian mccartney. and he's a 25 year old firefighter who grew up in virginia, they moved during his last year of high school and his parents currently own a daycare center here in the city. his family babied him for a majority of his life until he finally started doing whatever... but, fortunately enough, he this rebellious stage just consisted of him being a jock and following the path to his dream job. oh and he's dating the cutest girl... ever... i'm sorry if you're friends with him because he literally never shuts up about how beautiful she is.

you can find his au workshop comment here, application here, and tdm comment here! you can also find me over on plurk vongaribaldi where i'm totally open to pp's or friend invites! i'm glad to be back and hope to have an amazing time with you all!

[adoringpast]

OH MY GOSH YOU WERE SOUSUKE that was a long-ass time... hello it's me blair, ive started playing gbf bc of the free shit and now im in hell

im going to add you in a bit if you don't mind!

[lifespanned]

hiya!! i'm jamie and i'm completely new to the game! i'll be playing misa amane from death note, everyone's favorite nostalgic stalker/model/goth gf/mass murderer from the early 2000s. in case you don't know what death note is about (i...wish that was me), it's about magical notebooks that can kill people...and apples.

her au self is known as mia amane, a 23 year old fashion designer who's originally from northern california. she's a ~*popular girl on instagram*~ and has a brand of gothic clothes/accessories called MIA MIA! things like purses with bat wings, dark cosmetics, and clothes with her trademark gothic flair. she designs for local celebrities occasionally and is always trying to expand her brand to the next step! while she isn't a model anymore, she's still super concerned with her appearance and is obsessed with fashion in general - like her canon self she's also still obsessed with love and brings it up pretty often. if you have a romantic life (or significant lack thereof???) she is bound to stick her nose in whether you like it or not.

here's her au workshop, her application, and her tdm comment! my plurk is ishimarus, and feel free to add me! i'm excited to meet you all and am looking forward to the game :')

[adoringpast]

AHHH im so glad you brought her in! i adore misa so much omg

but hey hello and welcome to the game! name's blair and i play this mean girl of a model boy, izumi sena! i can't wait for them to interact and talk about fashion in-game, and i hope you'll have a great time here!
